For two weeks now, we’ve been living off-the-grid, as we take part in our first volunteer project with ‘workaway.com’. The platform enables travellers to visit people’s homes and/or organisation’s and volunteer an agreed workload (often 5 hours’ p/day, p/week) in exchange for meals and accommodation. Really, it’s a win:win situation; enabling people to experience local […]
Renowned for its many stunning natural wonders and surreal landscapes, Iceland is an experience like no other. And in the wintertime, it’s just magic. A true winter wonderland that with leave you in awe of mother nature, and wanting to stay forever. Widely known as ‘The Land of Fire and Ice’ with its stunning scenery […]
As I write this entry, I’m sitting around the fire pit in this little slice of paradise, by myself waiting for the others to wake up. It’s almost 9am, the water is (hopefully) not too far from boiling, because.. coffee, and the wind is a little cold on my back. This has been the morning’s […]
I’m writing this post as we take a break from a hard day’s work on our first ‘Work Away’ experience, about an hours’ drive from Bariloche in a tiny village (if even you could say that) called Confluencia Traful, Neuquén. Nestled by the river at the foot of the mountains, in short; this place is […]
Argentina Bus Adventures. To the innocent eye, this lovely green coach (pictured) might look somewhat like a luxury set of wheels, somewhere along the way from Buenos Aires to Bariloche, Patagonia.

There is a famous quote by Ibn Battuta, ‘Traveling – it makes you speechless and then turns you into a storyteller’. To travel the world is a privilege. In a perfect world, (after everyone is fed and watered of course), my wish would be that all the souls on Earth had access to this opportunity. […]
With the festive season upon us, many set out on new adventures and holiday travels, escaping the tiresome 9-5 life for the outdoors. With cold beers and Christmas cake mandatory, you might ask, – how do we counteract the ever-elusive donut scale from tipping the weights to the wrong side? With this burden shadowing over our holiday […]
Nestled amongst the bustle of Legerova Street, – a long stretch of road that connects the outskirts of Prague city with the old town and boasts a series of hotels, bars and eateries, lies the most delectable vegetarian culinary experience. Of my life. This little gem is called Etnosvet and it’s an absolute ‘must’ experience […]
Thigh-slimming, butt-lifting, tummy-tucking, body contouring… A seemingly instant fix to all of your body woes, at less than $15 a pop! For some, this might seem a sure fire way to secure that modelesque figure of your dreams (with little effort). For others, it might just be more b&llsh!t to sift through, an unwelcome reminder […]
There’s no question that being able to travel the world freely, to your little hearts content is a gift. To wake up each morning and have 24 hours of new opportunities, any freakin’ where in the world you feel like, is pretty damn cool. It’s something that we’ve worked hard towards, and it’s something that […]
